Experimental Investigation And Cfd Analysis Of Flat Plate Collector Of Solar Water Heating System – A Review
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Solar flat collectors are devices used to trap solar thermal energy and use it for heating applications like water heating, room heating and other industrial applications. Analysis of solar collector is complex task, due to high number of parameter affecting its performance .This paper presents the study on different techniques that are employed to enhance the efficiency of flat plate collector .Effect of using enhancement device ,use of propylene glycol, nanofluid, change water flow rate for better capture of radiation and method of heat loss reduction .The problem of flat plate solar energy collector with water flow is simulated and analysed using computational Fluid-Dynamics. Computational Fluid-Dynamics (CFD) approach has become powerful tool o investigate the heat transfer phenomenon. A lot of work have been made to develop the heat transfer mechanism in a solar collector.
